Biography

Matthew Bandy has been experimenting with electronic music for the past 9 years as a DJ, producer, live performer, and label manager. Originally born in Flint MI, he remembers spending much of his early childhood banging objects together listening to new sounds, going through his parents¹ records and old 45¹s on his Fisher Price turntable, and trying to dance like Michael Jackson. He credits most of his influences through Jazz, Hip-Hop, Rock, Soul, Punk, the Fender Rhodes, percussion, mix-tapes, and sounds from Detroit, Chicago, New York, and the West Coast.
As a producer and live act Matthew created the moniker of "Deep House Souldiers" with partner and close friend Joel Jackson. DHS is a concept that expresses the two¹s ideas and goals through their music. Now working on a few solo projects, Matthew has also created Limestone Recordings; a platform for his work as well as others who feel passionate about the art they create. He doesn¹t always write music to be understood on the dance floor but always has a concept in mind. His style can be described as music with concept and soul; a phrase he has also based his label after. As Matthew continues to DJ, work on new projects, and travel, he keeps a simple goal in mind, "to touch people through music the way music has touched me."
